I love this image - with more editing. I took the image into photoshop and adjusted the curves after picking a black point. How amazing! The title is perfect - it all makes so much sense! If you ever do a re-edit of this, please let me know.

picture as poem... the falling of a breath... the fall of man... the fall of innocence. one even imagines that the blurred rose toward the top is still alive. of course we're only fooling ourselves, as we so often do in the face of death. 9.

I have the feeling that this is a really cool picture that I am rating too low - but I just can't quite figure out what I'm seeing!

I think a white background would have made this look more elegant and tragic. it looks like its on and in front of foam right now. it just deosnt do the concept justice. 5

---Greetings from the Critique Club!---

The photo meets the challenge, no doubt. But it doesn't really go much beyond that. The photos that scored high in this challenge had more than just the shadow. This picture needs something to give a context. The "Hitchcock" comment is true. I'd like to see some other element of the situation, the potential victim, more of the surrounding room, etc.

The choice for black and white is a good one. Of course there's not much color to a shadow on a white wall anyway.

The frame is a little too thick for my liking, but that's just my opinion. Others may like it. I've found that less is more with framing on DPC challenges.

The best trait of this photo is the composition. You fill the frame well guiding the eye up from left to tight then down to the bottom right.

I hope you find this helpful. Good luck!

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
